James, 30, sat out eight games to recover from knee and back injuries before returning last Tuesday against the Suns.

Before sitting out for more than two weeks, James was averaging 25.2 points per game, the lowest mark since his rookie season. In his last three games, however, he averaged 33.7 points, 7.7 rebounds, 5.7 assists and 2.0 steals.

"I know, for me personally, [the two-week layoff] helped me out a lot," James said. "I've felt better in the last three games than I did the whole season, the whole 30-plus games that I appeared in. We've had a 2-1 record since I've been back, so hopefully we can continue on that path."
